Agri Resources Group, UNDP, ADD-OI to develop a sustainable vanilla supply chain in Madagascar and Mauritius

Agri Resources (Mauritius), ADD-OI, and the United Nations Development Programmes have partnered to develop a sustainable vanilla supply chain.

An MoU was inked between the partners and involves projects aiming to contribute to the environmentally sustainable management of living natural resources and land use, as well as the socioeconomic advancement and empowerment of farmer communities on the islands.

The partnership will see development of projects for sustainable agriculture, land restoration, agroforestry, and preservation of biodiversity, additionally boosting economy while also form job opportunities and training for the local communities. The projects will be deployed in Madagascar and Mauritius in 2023.

These long-term projects have the ability to create direct profitability and benefit from the Agri Resources Group’s experience in performing these activities. Agri Resources Group S.A. is an international business, headquartered in Luxembourg which focuses on the cultivation of essential products ranging from import-substitution crops to vanilla, spices and niche products.

“We are very grateful and humbled by the overwhelmingly positive response towards our projects.  Joining forces with ADD-OI and UNDP, as well as the financial and development institution who are willing to follow us is an opportunity to amplify the impact of our operations on the environment as well as the communities we serve,” said Shalina Dhallapah, Director of Agri Resources (Mauritius).
